In April, we announced that we had won a new Cheltenham Borough Council contract, entitled 'External Renovation & Improvement of Cornish Type Properties.' The scheme has now started and is expected to continue until approaching the end of the year.
We recently reported that SBS had won new works in Broxtowe and Rykneld, and that both schemes had been procured via Efficiency East Midlands (EEM). This illustrates how important the framework has been to us since we were appointed to it in 2017.
At the start of the year, SBS was shortlisted for the Project of the Year category in the 2019 Building Communities Awards, hosted by Efficiency East Midlands. The project in question was commissioned by Broxtowe Borough Council and involved installing a PermaRock external wall insulation system to 233 occupied properties.
SBS and Hereford Housing have an excellent working relationship that dates back to 2013. In April, we reported that we were busy delivering a 2-phase external wall insulation scheme in Redhill. Now, in July 2019, we have begun a new phase involving the installation of solid wall insulation to bungalows, houses and sheds.
Back in February, we announced that we had helped Rykneld Homes to celebrate the handover of its thousandth property to be fitted with external wall insulation. We have since completed that phase of works, which came to a successful conclusion in March. Working in the Grassmoor area, we installed EWI to a total of 172 REEMA properties.
